Different truck… different lease parameters.
If this is a want, then do the legwork you feel is needed to get the price down. If you won’t do your own bidding, you won’t be able to get the price lower.
Just for starters…
Get all the following information to put them in a calculator
- MF, RV (model, miles, term specific), incentives - from Edmunds
- Dealer fees (NJ doesn’t have a limit… can be 200, canbe 800)
- Research on going (realistic) pre-incentive discount
- Put them in calculator & double-check.
- Determine your limit
- Start negotiating
- Make a decision
If you don’t think you will be able to do the legwork… Hire a broker…
Autopia brokers, 917-983-5377 and ask for Alex has what you’re looking for, not in their sheet but they may have one.
LeasingMadeEasy might have one. (347)605-0180.
I have found a lot of incentives I could just never figure out if I qualify and if the dealer is telling the truth on what I qualify for
The best I can tell you is research the forum for “broker quotes” and see how much meat is left on the bones.
If you think you can negotiate to that and save the broker fee go ahead, if not pay the broker. You’ll save time and probably some $.
Good luck.
You might be pleasantly surprised with the Tundra. Just leased my first, and our last two vehicles were a 2016 Ram Bighorn and 2018 F-150. Really, really liking this Tundra so far. It definitely gets more compliments than either of the Ram or F-150. I do miss the car like settled suspension on the Ram, and silky smooth 2.7 Turbo & 10sp combo of the F-150, but these Tundra’s are well screwed together. Also seems bigger to me, drives like a small 3/4 ton. I like that. Not gonna lie, of the 3, I do/did prefer the F-150. Ram was completely forgettable. But no way in heck is the Ram or Ford worth 50-100% more per month with the current USBAank Tundra deals going on. If your in the Market for a half-ton lease, it’s a no brainer and probably the best overall truck Leasehack/deal in years. Forget the 1% rule, many of these are coming in at .5% or even lower.
To be fair the 2020 Ram is miles better than your 2016…no even comparable. The new ram is the best half ton in the biz. It is certainly worth a premium over the tundra.

I agree the 2020 ram is nice with 12 inch screen.

The whole windscreen could light up but at the end of the day it’s still an FCA product.
Test drove one. That interior sure is pretty, and still like those 4 corner springs. As hard as it is to come to terms with Ram now basically being a Fiat vehicle, they sure did a good job. Is it better than the older Tundra in my opinion, it definitely is. Is it twice as good, no I don’t think so.
In my opinion, the best time to buy/lease a Ram is Black Friday week.
I bought one November 2018 (new style Big Horn Crew 4x4) with MSRP in the 51.5k range; paid 36.8 plus tax, title and doc of $299 (no trade).
That’s 28.5% off MSRP.
How? “RAM BUCKS”. The dealer had ram bucks to use based on his sales and he gave me 11 of them for a total additional rebate of $2,750.
Can’t trust a Dealer/Manufacturer, once we learn what’s up they come out with something else to keep us on our toes.
